ABOUT EF
For over 55 years, we’ve dedicated ourselves to one global mission: Opening the World Through Education. Our programs help students expand their knowledge of the world around them, discover more about themselves, grow more confident and independent, and understand new people, places, and cultures.
No country has a richer art tradition than France, and Paris’s famous museums showcase many of its finest achievements, from the masterpieces in the Louvre to the Impressionist treasures at the Musée d’Orsay.
Provence inspired a generation of painters; see the results at the Atelier of Cézanne. And in Barcelona, the Picasso Museum reveals the prolific painter’s special genius.*While you can only order this tour for Tuesdays or Wednesdays, additional departure dates are available. Please reach out to your Tour Consultant for more details.
